Yesterday I was feeling bad and had a mild fever, so I didn't go to work. I took the chance of playing a bit in Final Fantasy XI. First, a bard in our linkshell needed some items for the opo-opo crown and so I and others tried to help him to get an item that drops off Sand Diggers in Quicksand Caves. We spent a good deal of time there, but we didn't get any.After a while the bard disconnected and didn't get back, so we just warped away. Later in the day, a few people were trying to get hyppogriph tailfeathers for PM4-2. They had no tank, so I took the place of my brother and joined them. These images show both events.

In the  end we got 24 tailfeathers, enough to grant us 12 mistmelts for the upcoming battle. A group is doing it now as I type, the rest will do it Sunday. I hope everything goes smoothly and we get more people further ahead in the Chains of Promathia missions.
